Change Date Formats
May 28, 2009
I have a userform which allows data to be entered onto a worksheet. One of the fields (a textbox with the standard calendar control) is the date. When the transaction saves, it correctly saves the date as dd/mm/yyyy using
ActiveCell.Value = TxtDate.Text
I also have a form which allows the user to amend a transaction by loading the data onto the form, amend it and save it back to the worksheet.
The problem is that when it picks up the data and re-saves it, it's resaved in the format mm/dd/yyyy which is a problem because I use the month as one of the categories that users can filter the data by.
I also have the following line immediately after each time the data is saved from the form to the worksheet:
Selection.NumberFormat = "dd/mm/yyyy;@"

I am importing data (using filestream) from txt files with comma delimited values. When I import dates into General type cells it turns a date of dd/mm/yyyy into mm/dd/yyyy only if the date makes sense.
I would like it to import dd/mm/yyyy as dd/mm/yyyy.
I am also interested to know how Excel/VBA deals with dates coming from various sources, what quirks or mode of thought it follows.

Extract data with differing date formats that I need to convert to something consistent that I can format as a date.
This is an example of data.... all with general format at the moment.

I have used this formula to extract the date portion, but I can't get this to then format as date. How do I convert this to the julian date, so I can then apply a date format?
=LEFT(G9,SEARCH("/",G9)+7)
(The day portion of this date always has a leading zero).

I have a hidden worksheet (in my add-in) where I store various configuration options for my processing. Among these are some cell formats that I apply to a target worksheet for the user to reformat their sheet.
I want to give the user the option to change some of these formats (font name, size, color, interior color). Is there a way to use a userform textbox to let the user format the text and fill options, or how would you recommend I do this?
I want to be able to store these options in my hidden config sheet so they can be applied every time, but do not want to unprotect the user worksheet for them to make the changes there.

I have a file here that already has macros in it. The file is basically a excel document generator. When you click create sku, the document will generate multiple documents based on the user inputs.
1) In the generated documents the original "generator" file creates, I need generated files to have column B and D formatted to TEXT, currently all the generated files are formatted to general. (This code is in module 1, line 84 col 34.)
2) The other problem is I need to append the value in Cell N1 in the "sku data entry" sheet to be appended to the generated file names. (this part of the code is is in module 1, line 150 col 28.)
I was unable to attach my file to this thread because it was to big. however I copied the module where I think the code is causing problems:
Sub procData()
' Starting point for read/extract process
Cells(4, 6).Select ' Range = F4 (row 4, col 6)
For x = 6 To 52 Step 2 ' col F to col AZ
[Code]...

Have a simple Pivot table that i have grouped in 14 day buckets.
Currently, the date range looks like this:
1/21/2013 - 2/3/2013
However, I want the range to show the 'last' date only.
Is there a simple way to do this? I just can not see it in the format cells menu...

I receive sales data from my wholesalers every month and I continually have to format them to fit the structure of our in-house database. I wanted to design a macro that would automate this process. However, in some months, the files are recieved in a format that is a bit different from the wholesaler's usual format.
Is there such thing as an initial "litmus" test where I could try running the macro and if it doesn't fit the usual structure, there's an error code and I could do it by hand?

I have a spreadsheet that is very large and formated a certain way. I want to make sure that a user cant put the cursor in the lower left corner and copy cells by dragging, copy & paste, or do anything other than input data and be able to highleght text and reinput data in case they mistyped or misspelled the data.
ex: user clicks on cell E33 and types in '1234568' and then move to next cell. The user can click back on E33 and can correct by retyping. That is all the user is allowed.
The cells in question are also in ranges if this helps. EX: 'E33:AJ67'

In the toolbar there's a section titled "Number" which allows you to change cell formats with selections named General, Number, Accounting, Date, Time, etc. I want to permanently change some of their default formats.
For instance, currently when I select Number the default is -4000.00. I want to PERMANENTLY change its default to (4,000.00). How do I do this?

I need for my office a table which has one column with dates. The "issue" is, that sometimes I know the whole date (day, month, year), sometimes only the month and year and occasionally just the year. Is there a way through custom number formatting that excel behaves correctly? How would I need to set conditions to achieve this? Because now something happens which is 99% incorrect .

I have data sent to me with different date formats on the same spreadsheet; I used Format - Cell and format date to this format: yyyy.mm.dd. However, only some of the data changed to this format and rest remain the same. I've tried many other ways, but didn't work.

I have a simple piece of code that gets a date from the user via inputbox in the format dd/mm/yyyy. That date is then put into a cell (e.g. B1), and the cells to its right get given something like "=B1+2", "=C1+5" etc so that they will all show a date a few days further down the track. (Much more complicated than that but this is the basic idea)
The entire row is then formatted "ddd dd mmm yyyy" with the intention of every column getting a header like "Wed 27 Jan 2010". This works perfectly for every column EXCEPT B which shows the the string "27/01/2010" it was given from the inputbox.
Right clicking --> Format Cells shows every cell in the row has the exact same 'Custom' format, and the 'Sample' at the top looks correct for every cell except B1.
BEFORE the macro runs and formats all the cells, but AFTER they have been given their formulas, they all display something along the lines of '40021', '40023' which I assume is the number of days since Jan 01 1900 or the like - proving that THEY knew the value in B1 was a date, so why doesnt B1 itself know?

I have a userfiorm with a text box that auto fills as follows
PHP Code:
Fill Datebox DateBox.Value = Format(Date, "dd/mm/yyyy")
which today fills the text box as 01/03/2012 (UK format), however when i try log a record as follows
PHP Code:
copy the data to the databasews.Cells(iRow, 1).Value = Me.DateBox.Value
it changes the date to the american format so that it is pulling through on the data base as today being the 3rd Jan 2012.

I need to amend that column to display 26 Mar ( or 12 Dec or 17 Apr etc depending on value).
Try as I might, using format cells, nothing results in the required display. I'm not even sure what format the cells were in as received, since highlighting the received column and selecting "format cells" does not reveal the initial formatting. If I try pasting special to a new column and selecting values, I just get the numerical date value as a 5digit number.

I've attached a small sample of an excel file I created from a CSV. The date has defaulted to American format and the time is, as you can see, messy. How can I reformat so that I can have British date format and 24 hour clock?

I need to change the date format in a cell which also contains text.
The full formula is as follows:-
="Report period:
"&TEXT(Control!B9,"dd mmmm yyyy")&" - "&TEXT(Control!B10,"dd mmmm yyyy")
This gives me the following:-
Report period:
01 October 2012 - 30 September 2013
What I would like to have is the following:-
Report period:
1st October 2012 - 30th september 2013
It's only a minor change but I think it looks better. Without a hideously complicated formula, if this is possible using one of the standard cell formats?

An in-house server spits out a whole lot of dates which I put into Excel and then use the dates for analysis (VBA code). The problem is that Excel is getting confused about the date formats. Sometimes the dates are formatted as dd/mm/yyyy and then the next line can randomly be mm/dd/yyyy. This totally messes up all changes of having data integrity.

I have data which is exported from my system which includes the job date and gross profit amount. I want to find the gross profit total for each day based on a matching date. However, the data exported includes the time in the date cell and Google Sheets won't match it. I'd like to avoid using a helper cell if at all possible.
You can see the formula here : [URL] ....
Formula is on the Q column.

I'm new to VBA so my i'm having alot of problems figuring out simple stuff.
Below is my script and when i run it, the dates turns out incorrect.
I noticed this only happens to dates that are before 13th of each month.
Example,
1st May 2008 ( 01/05/2008)
will turn up as
5th Jan 2008 ( 05/01/2008)
However when i manually open the file Todays trades.csv
The date looks just fine.
Is there some problem with using VBA to call up the file?

I am trying to find dates & time within text in a cell & return to a separate cell. The issue I have is that the date format varies frequently. I also can't rely on searching for "Sent:" as this also varies frequently
e.g. From: ########
Sent: 17 November 2011 11:57
I would like to return 17/11/2011 11:57
From: #######
Sent: 01/11/2011 11:50:13
I would like to return 01/11/2011 11:50
From: ########
Date: 05/11/2011 09:45:13
How can i search for various forms of dates and return them into a cell?

I have inherited a spreadsheet that I need to update soon. It takes data that has a date field and creates a pivot table by month. The person who created it completed it thru February. Now I have added data for March and April, but the pivot tables can not find this new data and I suspect it is because of the date formatting (I have done the Change Data Source under PivotTable Options to include all the new data).
The reason I suspect the date format is that she built a button to run a macro named "dateformat", which is not in the workbook. I have tired to manually format the date using the format painter from the February dates that the pibvot table recognizes, but I still get no results.

I have two columns containing dates (Date1 and Date2). Date1 is like a long date and Date 2 is a short date. I need a macro to compare these two dates and delete rows where Date1 <> Date2. Please find attached the before and after file which also contains the date formats for these two dates.

I have a table of data (total 142 rows). Column contains dates, in the format dd-mmm-yyyy.
I tried to filter using DATE FILTERS->EQUALS and in the custom filter window, I chose EQUALS then picked a date from the date picker icon. The date I picked was 5/4/2009 (this is May 4, 2009, formatted automaticall by excel as m/d/yyyy).
When I clicked OK, nothing showed up despite the fact that there are 6 occurences of May 4, 2009 (formatted as dd-mmm-yyyy in the data table)
So my questions are:
1. Is this due to the formatting?
2. Is there a way to change the date format supplied by the date picker?

This is a project plan with tasks and dates. Column A is the activity number. (Example 1, 2, 3" etc). Column B is the task (Ex. "Complete Report"). Column C is number of days required to complete the task. Column D is the dependency column. (Ex. Cell D2 =1 in other words Task 2 is dependent on task 1). Column E is the date.
I would like to have a seperate start date cell and a go live date cell.
The objective is to enter a start date, and have each column E date increase based on the number of days entered in Column C. If a task is dependent on another and I change the number of days in Column C I need the dependent task to change the same amount of days.

In a particular month, I have some transactions with a consumed date. If the time falls at 12.00 AM in the end of the month, then the transaction goes into the next month. Below is an example:
3/25/2009 12.00.00 AM
4/1/2009 12.00.00 AM
I want all the transactions that fall on 4/1/2009 due to 12.00.00 AM to convert to 3/31/2009.
